Our cat is very quirky and particular. But Kellie took great notes and followed through with all of his weird needs. She provided fantastic care.

Alexis took care of our 1.5 year old cat while we were gone for our wedding. We already knew when we did the meet & greet that Alexis knew exactly how to make an animal feel extremely comfortable and safe and her updates just confirmed for us that we made the best choice with her. She really understood his energy and was able to cuddle with him and also play with him depending on his mood. We came home to a very happy cat and would book her again.

Meg was fantastic! She came by to check on my cats while we were away. She sent us picture updates every time she came which I loved because it assured me that they were doing okay. She even dealt with my cats being naughty and chewing through their food bag! Not only did she take care of the cats, she also when above and beyond and watered my plants and brought in the mail. I wouldn't hesitate to use Meg next time we are out of town!

Leticia is an outstanding dog trainer/walker! I had issues with my dog constantly pulling on the leash during walks. After just a few sessions with her, he became much more polite and now walks calmly by my side. I’ve seen how she trains dogs using her positive reinforcement approach, and it’s truly impressive how quickly she earns their respect and trust. I cannot recommend Leticia’s services highly enough. Whether you need someone to dogsit or train your dog, you can be confident that she will exceed your expectations, and your dog will come back better behaved than ever.

Emma took care of my maltipoo a few times last year in the fall and she did an excellent job! Emma took my dog on walks, car rides, and ensured she was always happy. I would definitely have her back to watch my dog again.

About: When it comes to dogs, I've got experience with every stage of life—from the energy of a bouncing puppy learning its first commands to the gentle, watchful care of senior dogs who need extra comfort and support. My secret? I tune in to each dog's unique personality and needs. I’m that person who will sit with a shy pup until they feel safe, or go on an extra-long walk for high-energy dogs who need to burn off steam. And if you've got a clever escape artist or a curious troublemaker, I’m not afraid to get creative! I’ve trained dogs to master basic commands, helped socialize pups for better behavior, and used enrichment activities to keep clever minds active and engaged. 🦴 My goal is to leave every dog not only happier but a bit wiser (or at least more tired!) than when we started. Simply put, I’m not just a dog sitter. I’m the friend who’ll show up with treats, patience, and a heart dedicated to making each visit as enriching as it is fun. Because to me, every pup is family. 🐾 Pet care is woven right into my everyday life, making it easy for me to provide attention and love throughout the week! With my flexible schedule, your furry friend will rarely be left alone and can enjoy a homey, cozy atmosphere all day long. I’m in school, but my afternoons are wide open for playtime, walks, and one-on-one attention. 🐕 Once I'm home, I focus fully on their needs—whether it’s burning off some energy with a game of fetch, a walk around the neighborhood, or simply some cuddle time on the couch. Weekends? Even better! I have all the time in the world to make sure your pup feels right at home. With my adaptable schedule and dog-friendly setup, you can count on a reliable, warm environment that fits naturally into my routine, keeping your pet safe, happy, and thoroughly entertained! 🐾 Your dog's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. Living in the Stanford dorms, I’ve created a pet-friendly space where dogs can feel right at home, even in a new environment. My dorm is cozy and inviting, with enough space for your pet to relax, play, or curl up for a nap. 🐶💼 Stanford’s campus is filled with beautiful common areas and plenty of green spaces, perfect for a daily dose of exercise and fresh air. Whether it’s a peaceful walk through tree-lined paths or a playful romp on a nearby lawn, your dog will have a chance to explore and enjoy the outdoors in a safe, controlled way. 🏞️ I’m mindful of routines and safety practices, so your pup will always have the structure they need to feel secure. Whether it’s managing mealtimes, sticking to established commands, or simply offering reassuring attention, I make sure every dog feels right at home. You can trust that your pet will not only be safe but will also be showered with all the love and care they deserve. 🐾

Emily is the pet whisperer! Ever since we were little, cats, dogs, turtles, and even horses(!) have loved Emily—unquestionably drawn by the love and understanding she shows animals. With our three cats at home, Emily is the favorite, the expert at coaxing them into the car for vet checkups or helping administer medications. I’ve never seen anything like her relationship with our youngest cat, who essentially follows her around the house all day and night. Emily will show the utmost thoughtfulness and professionalism in taking care of your animals! Her natural talent with pets is augmented by her academic interests in zoology and animal behavior. Book Emily today!
